hey faust! 37 pages...jeezz hope i'll will get that lol
just here to say that you're on the right way! the only 'crit' is, it seems like you're rush things to much, like the bargue studies, these things were ment to studie for a week orso, correct me if i'm wrong. I think when you do something and really go for it, the work is clearly better and cleaner! something i still have to learn, like, really sit for a work for 2 weeks straight, that way you learn so much more about your own skills, or where you stand in the skill level haha. anyway you're doing fine! 5*
you bastard telling me I'm talented and your pulling off such insane stuff!!!
reeeaally great studies man, i mean top notch!
and i enjoyed so darn much so artistic and full of truth

You seriously need to change the name of this thread to "Faust's (too much) Relaxation Sketchbook"
No updates for so long? I'm like looking at subscriptions page every day, every minute with hope for some badass new art from you but there is only blank space. Where is that daily fix? I'm dying here!

Hey man, how are you doing? Thought it was time to take a closer look at your sketchbook, and I like what I see. Keep up the good work! This one is interesting: http://www.conceptart.org/forums/att...1&d=1232756540 I like it.
Well I've got like a month between the updates, I thought I would go out, ejoy life and somehow mutate into an awesome art-god inbetween since that seems to be the vibe going on lately around here. While I waited I burned through something like 200 pages worth of scetchbooks, but not hasted haha I just like to do silly quick scetches while my hands are free and I definately enjoy those little scetches alot. Polished stuff is for the polish
Anyways, thank you for looking at my stuff and even more those of you who took the time to write a word or two. It's always much apprechiated, thank you very much!
Of couse, I'll answer you personally:
WhiteC: Dude, you're one of the rockin' Cs from CA there is nothing you could do for me lol, you already made everything right choosing that username hehe Thanks for the kind words!
jedininjaman: Hmmm it was a failed study because its proportions very fuckd up The second try went much better and now I'm finally going over to do some really long casts.
Gliederpuppe: Kein Problem Alter Thx!
TASmith: Whoah that's so long ago I don't know just wanted to let them be together compositionally I guess. It was really more something of a metal-study and I tried to design armors but I wasn't really pleased with the result. Thx for the compliment for my drawings
Helioth: Dude, I'll write you a PM just after I'm finished with this mammoth-update
Teh Gosu: Thanks man! You're definately making progres and working on pretty important stuff over there in your SB! Should be doing the smae but I'm too lazy HAHAHA!
purb36: Ya I know but frankly, the 3D-part of art only becomes fun for me when I can apply light and shade. Making lines for perspective and structure is booooooooooring. But I know I should do that, but it's no fun . Wish I had your tenacity man!
Frank: hey there! 37 pages? It's not that much, I'm just not switching over to new threads, I think that's a very bad internet-habit that gives the impression we could somehow erase the past... Also, I'm used to this thread now so I'll stick with it. It's lenght isn't an achievement at all however. I really really really dig your stuff though, would like to hang out sometime to scetch or something, but it's okay, my skilllevel isn't as good as yours and I just would be the one draining all the knowledge out of you like I do with Merlin hehe Cheers buddy!
Hygami: Ahaha, liar! Thanks for staying mang!
Farvus: hehe, I'm sorry to dissappoint That's why I'll make fixed dates for the next update. I chose not to update daily anymore because, well I already send you a PM about that I just recon...
Helioth: ...
Merlin: Heh, I could think that with you studying at that fine-art resort hehe It was just a little study on planes, values and composition though. Still suck at all of them! Damn I wish I had your patience when it comes to rendering! See ya around master!
Went to Berlin and Kassel the last days, was a very nice experience, thanks again Helioth for providing me with food, shelter and good company! Wnt to Marco's place but that was kind of anti-climatic. Got sent away like the creepy fanboy that I am Kassel was awesome,though, went to Rotopol and that place is dope. Very relaxed people and masterful art Next time I'll come back with more money probably hehe
Oh yeah there's art too, or at least some pictures...
First off some of the scetches from the moleskine, that I finished:
My current scetchbook is a 400-pages book with horrible paper. A reason for me to scetch more so that I can get over to a better Scetchbook
Then some photos of the latest Life-drawing session (seems like the current Linux-kernel DOES recognise my camera! Awesome!
Also an environment-ink I have lying around here for a long time already:
First 2 poor tech-designs, I feel like I have to learn a lot here still. One is the "finished" version of a scetch posted earlier:
Some studies:
And Illustrations. My TD-entry seems to have gotten some votes which is vey flattering but I really rushed this one in the end and had to quit because I went to my trip to Germany. Gax should have made it You should all go vote if you didn't already!
oh interesting studies going on, specially the condom one.
really like your painting tis good ^_^

the last two are... wow! veryyy nice work, the amount of sketches .. just pure gold how sweet of you to be holding the next update on my birthday keep it up!
your colors and values are getting better and better with each and every update, great work man. Maybe you should concentrate more on form,shape and proportion when using a pencil, don't bother too much about rendering, sometimes it seems that your pencilrendering is distracting you from the actual drawing.
Good work you're going the right way, keep it up!!!

Interesting. Very interesting. Faust - Badass Painting Unit .
Agree with Gloominati on sketching though. Especially if you want to design stuff.
Faust, these rock! You seem to be simplifying the forms more efficiently than ever before. The environment ink is a great start, but it would help to get more darks in there.
The TD entry is great, even if you ran out of time. I had more time and still didn't get efficient simple forms, values, and colors like yours. You truly are improving, so please post more!

Nice stuff,
Your pencils and digitals are very nice, do you also use other trad media? Acrylics or oils? The digitals kind of remind me of the style so I thought maybe you had taken from that. I like the red lines in the geisha pic, how did you come to that?
Oh my, interesting week. I've gone back to basics polishing up my inner 3D. I'm not going to torture you with my attempts on that, though. Even though I myself like it very much when people post their quick little 2-minute doodles in their scetchbooks...
@My57: Haha thank you, you mean the subject-matter is speaking to you? My painting isn't really exceptional. I have a sub-par tablet working with a sub-par program. And I don't even have the basics down.
@algenpfleger: Yeah compared to you I still am the masterslacker haha! Well I have grown fast over the years, and doing quick scetches is very fun and refreshing. You should try it too sometime haha, I feel like often you put too much thought into your progress making your drawings a little stiff, espescially your poses and facial expressions. Always humbled by your presence, man!
@ hp: What's so great about that? hehe, thanks Emily!
@ Fumble: Thanks! Always nice to inspire someone, even if it is just the ammount of wind my brainfarts produce
@Dile_: Happy Birthday then! Keep growing at that pace man, but don't grow up too fast, promise?
@Gloominati: Thanks man! Good crit too. When doing simple scetching on the train, on the WC, at the bar whatever I don't really think about a structured approach very much. Maybe that's something to sonsider putting more thought into it... Too bad I'm still at doing cubes and shit. I'm so slow with those art-things, really envy you, you are taking off having solid foundation and you already can draw everything in every perspective and all that. I wish you all the best and good luck in Berlin, man!
@Helioth: Hehe I like it more on the computer-screen, that way it's always a new viewing-experience everytime I see my scetches in a new monitor Speaking of which, I think your monitor needs serious calibration, it really sucks up a lot of the darker values, compared with my 2 screens. Maybe that's also a reason? Peace, man!
@Hygami: Nah my dedication is not really that great. I saw the post from Mark Nelor today and I SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the compliments, though.
@Farvus: Hehe, thanks Farvus, did you end your scetchbook? I see, you want to get those 5 stars really quick, right? hehe, stopping by your book later, man!
@Earendil: Wow that's a great compliment, thanks!
@Janos: Nope, never painted before and according to my teachers, I still don't I'm really frightened of those tradidtionals, subtractive color-mixing and all that.... I plan to do oil-casts to finally get that shit out of my system. The line-thing comes from me looking at a lot of symbolism-stuff right now, also the illustrations of cornwell and others have those neat little outlines in them. It's a neat little tool for composition and focus, also I wanted some really saturated red in that painting Thanks man, you're really kicking it over at your place!
Anyway, mostly digital for this update I guess, also a really small one, I'm really unfocussed . Starting of with a horrible photography of a bad cast-drawing. The light-conditions were hard to say the least. Natural light is fucking hardcore O_O. The next one will be smaller (Not 3m lol) and with spotlight.
Furthermore just defacing various old masters
That's all folks! Seeya next week!
Your work is so fabulous

I still see a nice painterly style, so I think you won't do too horrible in your traditional mediums. I like the last one the best of your new update, just because of the lose colouring and teh bold colours themselves. Also, very nice detailed face in the second one. I'm drawn to that first, even though there is a huge white space on top of that.
The first two faces need more form describing shadows, and somehow I fel like the noses are too detached form teh face.
As for your update.
The cast drawing is great. Very good proportions and rendering. However when I look at those female faces it seems like you don't fully apply this inner 3d. The shadows doesn't make sense. Maybe it's beacause you don't work enough on the line drawing structure? (I mean something more advanced than boxes). Maybe mark on seperate layer what is light direction and it will be much easier to figure out how bright you can paint the faces and where is the strongest spot of light on the face. Maybe you don't include ridges and hollows in form? Ridges catch subtle specular light, hollows get subtle shadows. Maybe you don't proceed to smaller brushes after you block the form so that you can really sculpt planes and silhouette with value?
I like the colors in Thanatos study. I've seen this painting in real life and it's really huge and has a strong mood.
The robot.. hmm. I hope you don't plan to become Rob Liefeld of industrial design . I know it's sometimes hard but putting your creation behind a palm tree won't really solve the problem. If you like quick sketches so much then why don't you just fill few pages with robot thumbnails or whatever you plan to do from imagination. This way you'll give yourself the chance to see what's out there. You can push the ideas faster this way and eliminate designs you're not fully satisfied with.
I think you need to screw rendering and color for a while and focus on big sized line drawing ideas with focus on proportion, volume and so on. The better line drawing you will make, the easier it will be to figure out the shadows. These are your mythical foundations.
Keep going.
I like what you did with the flora & fauna study from the post card.
And the study of 'nike of whereverlandinwhoknowswhere'
looking forward to more updates, how about some more sequential stuff though?
All the best to you!

Really nice pencil work!, and your "defacing"(!) is quite good aswell.
Keep up the good work!
Conor Burke
@Hive_minD:Giving that compliment right back to you, my friend! Thanks!
@Janos: Yeah although I'd rather say "sloppy" than painterly in a lot of cases. Glad youlike my mastercopies, the faces one is a study from an old pastel-drawing that went horribly wrong. The others came out quite nicely though, i think too. Color-wise that is.
@Farvus: Thanks man! When I'm feeling I'm putting up quality and getting somewhere I have you to throw me back to reality I can't thank you enough for that. About the robot, actually the palm-tree was first Just needed something behind it for good measure. There's a lot of wise things you said andyeah, my 3D-sense isn't tingling at all at the moment. This is the reason why I've returned doing basic stuff like cubes, ellipses and all that... because although I can visualize something by now before drawing it (This might sound ridiculous to you, but for me imagining stuff before drawing it is a huge achievement), I still can't rotate it, put it into the right perspective etc. The 'feel' isn't there too. Shit. Art is hard to learn!
@Helioth: I've alwas wanted to draw comics, man! Drew comics as a child, even had a weekly serial made for myself that went through until its 14th or so issue with extra editions and shit! HAHA, the other kids just found it strange because it was just about video-games and stuff hehe. But no comics for no, though. Sorry to disappoint.
@MacTire: What the hell is good with my pencil work? I mean, I kind of slowly get the hang of quick scetching and setting ideas down past and precise, but it's in no way good looking! Actually, as others pointed out, my shading sucks, hehe. So, I'm really thankful for your compliment, but I'm super curious what you find so good, because I really want to make my scetching more appealing!
Anyways, it's already the 11th for some minutes haha (Although it still was the 10th when I started typing . Also, just a small update, some SB-pages and the Portraits of the Draw-the-official-CA-people.thread in the lounge.

On the other hand I see you can make flawless cast study while imagination stuff doesn't keep up with that level. That basicly means that you just need to take your time with those imagination doodles. All this anatomy thing or anything else from drawn from memory is partially observation but most of it is usually invention. You look into anatomy book and based on that you invent how you will draw leg or head. Good way is to sketch from memory with anatomy books opened in front of you and look into them from time to time.
Visualising before drawing barely works for me. I just put down shapes without being precious and I see some weird alien head comes out. After that I note in my brain that this type of structure feels very alienish and I can more confidently draw it next time. Even if I visualise something and I manage to draw like 99% of what I imagined, it usually doesn't come out as good as I expected. That's why it's always struggle to cheat my mind and draw something more unexpected that will be surprisingly good.
As for the boxes, ellipses, circles and all that shit. Small secret from me. I couldn't draw ellipses for many years. They started coming out decent enough maybe two, three months ago. Yet it didn't make me draw less volumetric objects. I don't think all this 3d-sense would be how accurately you draw these shapes but rather that you see them in everything you draw. Even if you draw head without sketching construction lines, you try to imagine ellipses wrapping around it (which is actually something between box, cylinder and sphere) or you put face features with ellipse in mind.
If anatomy proportions distract you from drawing volumetric stuff then sketch tentacle monsters. That's my advice . (If you don't like tentacle monsters then try mutants) It all comes from my personal experience with volumetric drawing . Also there's no need to construct perspective but maybe draw axes like in 3d program - x, y, z. Then sketch something but try to stick to them most of the time (when it comes to angles). I do that sometimes for industrial stuff and it helps.
Everybody has different habits but maybe you'll find that useful.

Hey man! It really has been ages since I dropped by, but I took some time off CA in general, so it's nothing personal But sweet lord, look at your work! It's looking so fabulous. Sketch-load is really impressive, your productivity amazes me. Also, the cast-drawing made me wide-eyed! Indeed natural light's a bitch, but you seem be getting the hang of it. Great lines, they convey the texture beautifully.
But I think the real candy in your latest updates would be the illustrations. The geisha one absolutely deserves those votes! The atmosphere is tangible. Doesn't feel rushed to me at all, if anything, the sort of quick or relaxed brushstrokes add to its charm

Theater Schmeater Announces Their 2012 Season
Theater Schmeater is celebrating their 20th Anniversary with a season of rarely seen plays.
The New Year is ushered in by the West Coast Premiere of Cradle and All by Daniel Goldfarb – "a sleek urban comedy where neighboring couples display radically different reactions to the crying of a baby. Claire and Luke use the distraction from across the hall as an inadvertent springboard to explore the foundation of their relationship, and discover that procreation might provide obstacles to their high end careers and perhaps to their love as well. Meanwhile, across the hall, Annie and Nate are searching for less prosaic answers, like how to sleep all night in the face of their crying baby, and the difference between expectations and reality when love is in the equation."
Cradle and All opens January 20th and runs Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays through February 18th.
In March of 2011, Theater Schmeater, in association with Staley Productions, offered the World Premiere weekend workshop production of Natalie Symons' three women play Lark Eden. On March 16, 2012, will open Lark Eden for a full run. The story of three Southern women's lives irrevocably intertwined by friendship, tragedy, and the irresistible compulsion of life, Lark Eden is a powerful illustration of life's ebbs and flows through decades of private and national history. Fresh from successful East Coast productions, Lark Eden with be directed by the author, Natalie Symons.
Lark Eden will open on March 16th and runs Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays through April 14th.
In April, Theater Schmeater will celebrate its 20th anniversary with a groundbreaking production of an old Schmee favorite. In conjunction with ACT Central Heating Lab, 2012's edition of The Twilight Zone: Live! will be presented in ACT's Bullitt Cabaret Theater. "This exciting new enterprise will allow Theater Schmeater to offer its iconic production to wider audiences in a larger venue. While much of this production will be new, the 2012 edition of The Twilight Zone: Live! will be directed by Zone fans' favorite Tim Moore who will also reprise his performance as "Rod". Three of the historic TV episodes will be offered for a night full of fun, fright, and nostalgic cold war paranoia."
The Twilight Zone: Live! opens at ACT on April 6th and runs Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays through April 28th.
About the show: When a troubled, but handsome youth comes to your door looking for lodging, how can you resist him? In Joe Orton's dark comedy Entertaining Mr. Sloane, moral ambiguity reigns supreme as Mr. Sloane tumbles with geriatrics, gangsters and lusty middle aged tarts. Quintessentially as British as Bangers and Mash, Orton's keen wit and social skepticism resonates down the decades.
A Seattle Premiere, Entertaining Mr. Sloane opens on May 18th and runs through June 16th.
The Annual Free For the Family Park Show ushers in the beautiful Seattle summer with Hansel and Gretel. Not your grandmother's H & G, this pantomimic adaptation by Sally Gander tells you the rest of the story of what happens to the siblings after they stuff the moley old witch into the oven, turn the knob to broil, and return to a highly dysfunctional family life. A couple of comic crooks, a revengeful sister witch, and a bubbling British Bobby all add up to a cool summer diversion for hot summer afternoons.
Hansel and Gretel by Sally Gander opens on Saturday June 30th and runs on Saturdays and Sundays through August 5th. Directed by Julia Griffin, Hansel and Gretel is presented at the Amphitheater in Volunteer Park at 5:00 p.m.
Parallel Lives, based on Kathy Najimy and Mo Gaffney's 1989 stage show and a 1991 HBO special by the same name runs parallel to our park show at The Schmee. From angels discussing God's interior decorating choices for the world to West Texas bar patrons, Parallel Lives offers a talented cast of two the chance to create a multitude of characters to delight and confound. After 20 years, Parallel Lives (updated with new material in 2005) still rings true as a penetrating look at Americana.
Parallel Lives opens on July 13th and runs on Fridays and Saturdays through August 11th. Directed by Kerry Christianson (who directed Schmee's summer hit Pageant Play in 2009). Parallel Lives will be presented at Theater Schmeater, which is air conditioned for summer delight.

Part of working with our clients is "understanding" what they do. Recently, we had the pleasure to chat with Dr Claudia Kindler of Valley Chiropractic SF. She was kind enough to walk us though the process and what to expect when we visit a Chiropractor.
How long have you been a Chiropractor?
17 years
When should I see a Chiropractor versus my primary physician?
When you have a musculoskeletal problem that you do not want to treat with medication.
When you have had musculoskeletal symptoms that are temporarily relieved with stretching, massage, exercise or medication but do not have lasting effects.
Is chiropractic safe?
Chiropractic is very safe, reflected by having some of the lowest malpractice insurance rates among doctors and physical therapists. There are rumors about chiropractors causing strokes or injuring discs but the research and statistics do not support those statements.
What is spinal decompression?
Spinal decompression is a procedure that relieves pressure on spinal nerves and/or spinal discs. Decompression can be either surgical, microdiscectomy, laminectomy, or non-surgical using traction.
What can I expect on my first visit?
A thorough history of your injury and/or your complaints, a review of your other health history, a neurologic and orthopedic exam. With this information further testing may be indicated, X-Ray or MRI, and then a treatment plan. Depending on the circumstances you may or may not be adjusted.
Why does cracking my back make me feel better?
Initially you feel better because there is a relief in pressure where your joints have not been moving properly. The muscles around the segment(s) that have been adjusted will relax and normalize. Any time a joint is cavitated, or gapped, there is a release of endorphins into your system.
When should manipulation be avoided?
Manipulation should be avoided when a bone is broken, is cancerous, there is a sequestered disc or pain in the area is so severe a specific adjustment cannot be safely delivered.
Is chiropractic appropriate for children?
Yes, chiropractic is safe and appropriate for children. Infants have received care for neck, shoulder, low back and hip problems. Chiropractic can also help with spitting up and colic. Toddlers have been helped with chiropractic care for falls, ear infections or colds.
Will insurance cover my chiropractic care?
All insurance companies offer chiropractic care as a benefit. Actual coverage is determined by the individual policy.
What advice can you offer someone who is thinking of becoming a chiropractor?
To always keep the patients best interest in mind. It is easy to lose focus on what is important with the many hours of schooling and interning. There are also many stressors when beginning practice, stay focused on what inspired you to go to chiropractic school and provide the best health care that you can. Being a chiropractor is a fabulous career choice!

Week 1
Numbers game: Six NFL teams that will rise or fall this season
The Green Bay Packers seemingly have nowhere to go but down.
The Packers, after getting into the playoffs as the NFC's No. 6 and final seed, made a memorable postseason run last winter that ended with them beating the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl.
However, when the Packers' expected win-loss record from 2010 is taken into account, it appears they are headed for even better things in 2011. The Packers should have won 12.1 games and lost 3.9, but finished 10-6 last season.
Expected win-loss record is an estimate of what a team's record should have been considering their points scored and allowed in a season, working off the Pythagorean formula for baseball that was devised by noted statistician and writer Bill James. As in baseball, football teams that underperform watch their expected records usually increase in win totals the following year while teams that exceed their expected records tend to fall back.
With that in mind, and the opening of NFL season almost here, let's take a look at three teams most likely to improve and three most likely to regress.
2010 regular season records and records against the spread in parenthesis.
Tennessee Titans (6-10, 8-8 ATS)
The Titans finished with double-digit losses last season despite outscoring opponents. They averaged 22.1 points a game and allowed 21.1 for an expected record of 8.5-7.5. That and the fact they lost eight of their last nine games are the primary reasons why long-time coach Jeff Fisher was fired and replaced by offensive line coach Mike Munchak.
The Titans feel having more stability at quarterback will help them improve under new offensive coordinator Chris Palmer as well as take pressure off star running back Chris Johnson. Veteran Matt Hasselbeck was signed as a free agent and will serve as a mentor to rookie QB Jake Locker.
Green Bay Packers (10-6, 9-7 ATS)
The Packers underachieved in the regular season last year as they barely got into the playoffs, needing to win their last two games despite having the second-best point differential in the league at 9.2, scoring 24.2 points a game and giving up an average of 15.0. Of course, they more than made up for it in the postseason by beating the Philadelphia Eagles, Atlanta Falcons and Chicago Bears in the NFC playoffs then downing the Steelers 31-25 in the Super Bowl.
Part of the reason the Packers figure to be improved is better health. They won it all last season despite placing 15 players on the injured reserve list. Two of the those players, running back Ryan Grant and tight end Jermichael Finley, figure to make an offense, led by star quarterback Aaron Rodgers, even stronger.
Cincinnati Bengals (4-12, 7-9 ATS)
The Bengals went from AFC North champions in 2009 to one of the worst teams in the NFL last season, losing nine games in a row at one point. The Bengals, though, weren't quite that awful as they were outscored by 4.6 points a game (24.7-20.1), which translates to 6.1-9.9 expected record.
While coach Marvin Lewis survived the four-win season, the Bengals hired Jay Gruden to replace Bob Bratkowski as offensive coordinator. Gruden has an intriguing number of young players to work with, including wide receiver A.J. Green, quarterback Andy Dalton and second-year tight end Jermaine Gresham.
Atlanta Falcons (13-3, 11-5 ATS)
The Falcons had the best regular season record in the NFC last season then were knocked off by the Packers at home in their first playoff game. Perhaps it shouldn't have been a surprise since the Falcons' expected record was worse than the Packers at 11.2 wins and 4.8 losses. They scored 25.9 points a game and allowed 18.0.
While preseason results usually mean nothing, there were some disturbing signs in the Falcons' 0-4 mark. The biggest concern is running back Michael Turner, who looked a step slow after undergoing offseason surgery to repair a torn groin muscle. High-priced cornerback Dunta Robinson was slowed by a hamstring injury after a disappointing first season with the Falcons last year.
New England Patriots (14-2, 13-3 ATS)
While doubting a Bill Belichick team is rarely a good idea, it is instructive to remember that the Patriots had the best regular season record in the NFL last year but were bounced out of the playoffs by the Jets at home. That came after the Patriots had an expected record of 12.3-3.7, allowing 32.4 points a game and giving up 19.6.
Quarterback Tom Brady had an incredible 36-to-4 touchdown/interception count last year. Those numbers are sure to suffer some natural regression and the 34 year old also showed signs of being a little less nimble in the pocket during the preseason. Meanwhile, wide receiver Chad Ochocinco had a hard time learning the offense since being signed as a free agent.
Jacksonville Jaguars (8-8, 9-7 ATS)
The Jaguars were a .500 team last season but should have been worse. Their point differential of -5.1 (22.1-26.2) worked out to a 6.4-9.6 expected record.
The Jaguars want to open up their offense and throw more deep passes and quarterback David Garrard was ill-suited to making such throws, leading Jacksonville to cut him Tuesday. Rookie Blaine Gabbert is still learning the offense, so that leaves backup Luke McCown as the Week 1 starter. The running game is a question as well. Maurice Jones-Drew underwent knee surgery in the offseason and backup Rashad Jennings will miss the season with a knee injury.

Don't get us wrong, we have a deep appreciation for comics. We think it's amazing that the medium lets great writers and artists put together innovative ideas, but it makes us sad when when such a great opportunity gets mixed up with ideas that should never be. Ideas like the forthcoming biographical comic about Twilight author, Stephanie Meyer. We can think of absolutely no reason that such a thing should exist in the first place, but even worse is the fact that it's far from being alone in the terrible-concept category of… Read More
Little Red Riding Hood Is Going Goth
It looks like Little Red will be coming to the big screen in a dark way, according to Variety's reportthat Leonardo DiCaprio's Appain Way will partner with Orphanscreenwriter David Leslie Johnson for a "Gothic reimagining" of the classic fairy tale.
Though there's no word yet on exactly how dark this new take will go, given that Johnson's sole writing credit is a horror flick, we feel pretty safe in saying this won't be one for the kiddies. Though the Grimm Brothers made the happy ending version of the story ubiquitous, many portrayals – from original oral tellings to Margaret Atwood's blood cloaked Little Red – have a much more gruesome take on the plot, with everything from werewolves to our heroin's death at the hands of the… Read More
Literary Links: Sexy Library Edition
We've always been big readers here at the Flavorwire office, but lately with the ebook craze flying around, we may have neglected our ink-and-paper pals down at the local library.

A New Jersey librarian named Andy Woodworth has gathered over 4,400 people to a Facebook group, petitioning Ben & Jerry's to launch a library themed flavor to raise awareness for libraries "in the face of stagnant or slashed state, county, and municipal budgets".

Film News: Halloween 2, The Dark Knight, The Lorax, and More
Despite a relatively good US run, things have turned out a bit odd for the kids flick Monsters vs Aliens. To begin with, the Dreamworks film didn't play so well overseas, bringing in just $177.1M in foreign markets, as opposed to the studio's Madagascar which pulled in $339.1M overseas. Equally odd is the decision to release the film on DVD on the rather inauspicious September 29, well ahead of the Christmas-time boom.
Though the director previously denied it, Rob Zombie's tweets now have Slashfilm wondering if Michael Meyers is going to get chatty in Halloween 2. The famous killer has never uttered a word on screen, though rumors about a "boo!" that was ultimately scrapped surrounded Zombie's first take on the film. But now Zombie has tweeted that he's doing some work with the Michael Meyer's actor Tyler Mane on some ADR (additional dialogue recording) which does sound… Read More

Consultation begins to help address traffic problems in the Gosport peninsula
Monday, 1 Jul 2013
Hampshire County Council's consultation on proposals to improve Newgate Lane and the western access to Gosport including a Stubbington bypass starts on 8 July.
The proposals aim to help address existing traffic problems on the Gosport peninsula to improve strategic east west and north south routes and to enhance access to the Solent Enterprise Zone.
The County Council is:
- Seeking early views from residents and businesses on possible routes for the Stubbington bypass and related improvements
- Presenting detailed plans for the proposed improvements to the northern section of Newgate Lane between Palmerston Drive and Tanners Lane
- Asking for a view on interim measures to improve the Peel Common junction
The consultation will run to 9 September, and will include drop in sessions where residents can discuss the proposals with council officers and information displays at local libraries, as well as information on the County Councils Stubbington Bypass website. Feedback from the public will be through questionnaires which will be available both at the exhibitions and through the website.
Consultation drop-sessions to discuss the proposals will be held at:
- Titchfield Community Centre - 2pm to 8pm on the 8 July 2013
- Lee-on-the-Solent Community Centre - 2pm to 8pm on the 9 July 2013
- Peel Common Junior School - 4pm to 8pm on the 11 July 2013
- Crofton Community Centre - 5pm to 8pm on the 12 July 2013
- Royal Sovereign Pavilion, HMS Collingwood - 10am to 4pm on the 13 July 2013
- Royal Sovereign Pavilion, HMS Collingwood - 2pm to 8pm on the 15 and 16 July 2013
Information will also be displayed at:
- Gosport Discovery Centre - 22 to 29 July 2013
- Fareham Library - 29 July to 5 August 2013
- Stubbington Library - 8 July to 9 September
- Lee on the Solent Library - 8 July to 9 September
Councillor Seán Woodward, Executive Member for Economy, Transport and Environment, said: "Addressing traffic issues around Stubbington and access to the enterprise zone at Daedalus are very important local matters. I would urge people who live in, or drive in and around, the Gosport Peninsula to take part in this consultation and help us to develop measures to tackle the traffic problems they experience."
The results of the consultation will help to inform and guide work on detailed traffic, engineering, environmental and cost assessments for a Stubbington Bypass. They will also enable The County Council to finalise the detailed design of the Newgate Lane north improvements and provide a steer on which interim measures for the southern end of Newgate Lane and Peel Common Junction are supported.

Wanted to wish my dad a happy 65th birthday!
The final few questions from my weekend mailbag. I find reading these to be very useful, even if the players and trade scenarios are different. Always interesting to see how people value their players in different league formats.
Which defenseman to keep - Faulk, Whitney, or Nikitin?
I'd go with Faulk. Nikitin's numbers were fantastic last year, but he will be the shutdown defenseman for the Jackets. I'm not sold on Whitney coming back 100% from his ankle injury. Faulk won't be a PPQB (he's too good defensively), but he is a great skater and moves the puck well.
Will van Riemsdyk finally break out?
Young forwards with size typically take longer to develop. I think Toronto is a good fit in terms of ice time being available, but it depends where JVR fits in the lineup. If he plays on a line with Kessel and Grabovski, then I definitely see a breakout on the horizon. He isn't good enough to carry a line at this point.
Will Marleau bounce back? How about Parenteau... how does he fare in Colorado?
Marleau is a great buy low. He's proven and consistent, but people in a lot of circles don't think much of him. He is strong defensviely which hurts his offensive output as the Sharks play him against top competition.
Parenteau... Colorado is a good fit, but not as good as Long Island. Duchene is faster than Tavares, but Parenteau (playmaker) was a natural fit with two star snipers in Tavares and Moulson.
I am putting the finishing touches on my Fantasy Guide contributions. This year, we are introducing advanced statistitcs to the fold. The findings have been interesting... to say the least.
Who says it is the slow part of the summer? My Fantasy Mailbag (which is now closed, thanks for the questions) had over 50 questions and close to 4000 views over the weekend.
Fitting – Aaron Portzline delivers 61 thoughts on Rick Nash. Some really interesting stuff in here.
"No. 2 = But he wasn't the perfect captain, not for the situation. Nash always played it safe. He allowed himself and those around him to get too comfortable. He was very 'Columbus' in that respect. This city doesn't yet know what it's like to have a major-league franchise in town. The kids clubs, the autograph signings, the classroom visits, and naming of koalas at the zoo are all great, and please don't read this and think we're suggesting otherwise. But the root of pro sports is the game, the competition, the on-ice drama. It's about rivalries and passion and watching the team that represents your city go toe-to-toe against other cities. It's about gut-level pride, not public relations. Nash always carried himself in a way so as not to offend anybody, his real thoughts and opinions buried deep beneath his sweater. That's exactly how this team is operated at times. Every ounce of energy is invested in making things look good. But you can't ever escape the bottom line: winning. That's pro sports."
"No. 5 = I firmly believe that when Nash started to play in All-Star Games and the Olympics -- when he began to meet and befriend the biggest stars in the game – he started to realize the view beyond his own fenced yard was pretty cool, too. And in most cases, it was better. There were instances last season, before the trade stuff started, when other NHL players were directly advising Nash to leave. One player tells The Dispatch: "I skated over to him before a faceoff and just told him 'you have to get out of here. Put your agent to work and get it done.'" Many were surprised last February to learn that Nash had asked to be traded. From what I can glean, players around the league were only shocked that it took him so long."
Some Chicago updates...
According to Stan Bowman, the club plans to use Patrick Kane as the second line center next year. I guess you can expect more heavy lifting defensively from Dave Bolland to ensure that Kane and Toews see a lot of offensive opportunities.
I like Brandon Pirri but the club doesn't want to rush him. Jeremy Morin's development has been slowed by a concussion. He will be in the mix for a top nine spot, but I am not sure he skates well enough to stick there.
The young guy in Chicago to get excited about is Brandon Saad. I really like his game – could see him hitting 15-20 goals and 40-50 points in 2012-13.
Answering some questions from Twitter…
"How do you think Klein will do with Suter gone from Nashville?"
i'm not sure if this move changes Klein's fantasy value a whole lot. He isn't an offensive defensemen, and the Preds will lean on him and Weber heavily in defensive situations.
The PP will be a place where the Preds can play their youngsters like Josi and Ellis, while the veterans like Klein and Gill will see more even strength and PK responsibilities.
"What do you expect from Duchene?"
I'm not sure. Right now, the Avalanche have three good centres. O'Reilly had an offensive breakout last season, but make no mistake he is still going to be the centre Colorado leans on to play the tough minutes.
Duchene had an awful 2011-12. He was moved to the wing, and didn't look comfortable there. Colorado would be best off to move him back to centre and give him a lot of offensive minutes. His wingers - David Jones and PA Parenteau would be a nice fit (on paper, at least).
What are your thoughts on Boedker and Tedenby?
Both are very skilled forwards who haven't been given opportunities to produce… until now. Boedker has established himself as a sound two-way forward, which is the only way to get big minutes under Dave Tippett. if and when Doan moves on, he could be a full time line one player with the Coyotes.
Tedenby - like Boedker, he could get a chance to play top six minutes with the departure of Parise from NJ. Tedenby is undersized but incredibly talented, and he plays a hard game too (not afraid to go to the dirty areas on the ice).
Right now, the Canucks have seven NHL defensemen on the roster. I could see one being moved, and even if not I'd expect Kevin Connauton and Frankie Corrado to challenge for roster spots at camp. Corrado will be a steady 20-25 point guy with solid peripherals. He is rock solid defensively, and has a booming point shot. Reminds me a bit of Josh Gorges - undersized defenseman but it doesn't affect him at all.
Gates here - the 2012-13 DobberHockey Banner Contest is down to the final eight for each respective position. If you are interested in having a say to who gets slapped on the main page banner, vote here. Polls are now open.

"We changed the wording on this card to fit for our baby shower. The couple wanted something butterfly themed for their little girl, but neutral, modern and not overly pink/girly. Loved the design of this card, and thankful it allowed us to personalize exactly how we wanted it. Wonderful!"
"This item arrived quickly and perfectly! The recipients all thought it was cute and loved the customization of it. It's a nice thick card and even the envelopes are sturdy! Which was surprising since I'm used to light and flimsy envelopes that can allow the card or pictures to be damaged in the mail. Very cute and would highly recommend any products from Tinyprints!!"
"Like another reviewer; I had the text changed to "we have an egg in our nest" vs. "we filled the nest." In this day and age when people announce such important things via social media, I am very excited to let our closest friends and family know the great news with these beautiful announcements. The customer service was absolutely wonderful as always; I just love Tiny Prints!"
"Sweet Anticipation was the best way to share our news with our loved ones! Although we know the gender of our little one, we wanted to keep the front images somewhat gender neutral. We revealed the gender by customizing the back of the card. We have received numerous compliments on our pregnancy announcments!"
"I can't say enough about the Sweet Anticipation announcement. It is so cute! The card is really nice quality on a heavy stock. The printing looks clean and crisp. It is such a unique way to tell your friends and loved ones about your pregnancy. Everyone who received it raved about it. I highly recommend them!"

Patient Information Comes of Age
A Special Virtual Issue edited by Jeannette Murphy
This virtual issue (VI) has been assembled to coincide with the 8th Annual Patient Information Conference 2013 organised by the UK Patient Information Forum (PiF). The conference theme 'Information and support – a service in its own right' is a response to policy documents and initiatives in both Scotland and England which signal the coming of age of patient/consumer information. The VI consists of a collection of free articles and addresses the question 'What can health science librarians do to ensure that the public are able to find, appraise and use health information?' This material provides research evidence, and examples of the types of initiatives librarians have undertaken to make information a health and care service in its own right. Two recurrent messages are that health science librarians need to form partnerships with healthcare providers and they have a role to play in improving health literacy skills.

Shame on you Mama Mia's – I wish I had read the reviews about the online orders.......... My order was wrong because the online system sucks. I called and was told (not nicely) there was nothing they could do. This is the 2nd time I have been treated rudely when I called in with an issue - I am done. I agree with the other posts - if you order from Mama Mia's you do so at your on peril!!!!!
If you've been looking for great traditional pizza – We tried Mama Mia's for the first time just a few months ago, when we heard from someone that it was great. Now we regret that it took so long for us to try it! If you miss the great pizza of the North End or New York, you will be delighted to find this place. Thin--but not too thin--crusts, not too much sauce. Good quality ingredients.
One other thing to love: The atmosphere of the shop is terrible. It's hot, greasy smelling and there's a lot of yelling behind the counter. We love it!
amazing pizza and the best service – Well, I been working for years at the VA hospital and seriously i started getting tired of our menu at the cafeteria, so i decided to try this little pizzeria down the street that everybody is talking about. Sure enough that experience was great and im glad i found it. The food is amazing and the service is even better. I was happy to see that some people take a proud of what they do. The customer service was outstanding.
Thanks Mamamias and keep it up.
The best pizza and the best service – I was driving tuesday night after a long day at work, on indian school road by 7th street to check this place out that people talk about, saying that the food was great. And that was true the pizza was just like back home, and the staff was so friendly they make me feel like family, specially the youg man with a ponytail. I wish if all those fast food places learn from mamamia how to take care of their customers the rigth way
Thank you mamamia, we need more place like you guys in a valley.
Horrible Delivery! – I wish I had read the other reviews. I ordered a pizza for delivery today. It arrived late and cold. When I called the manager to complain, I was told I lived too far away. Funny, I didn't live to far away for them to take my order and my money! There are better pizzas in the city and much much better delivery services. If you choose to ignore these reviews, you do it at your own peril.
Can't get "to go" orders right! – Mama Mia's has really good food. We were really impressed when we ordered food to go for a girl's night out party. So we ordered again. The order was wrong. There was no "chicken" in the Penne Vodka with grilled chicken. We forgave. For the next outing, we ordered the same, plus their "pinwheels" with brocolli and chicken. No chicken in the pinwheels. On the NEXT order to go, we ordered the Penne Vodka with chicken again. This time we called the owner and alerted him that our "to go" orders had been wrong; could he please double-check before we picked up. He (Frankie) assured us that everything would be correct. No chicken in the Penne Vodka. We're done.
DRIVER ASSULTED MY PARENTS – My parents ordered a pizza from here on 9-22-07 and had it delivered to a hotel near the airport.
Long story short, the driver was cursing at both my parent, shoved my father (which resulted in a serverly broken wrist because his hand was in his pocket, which is going to require two surgerys) and punched my mother in the head when she ran to the door to find out what was going on.
PLEASE DO NOT eat here! If this driver assulted not only my father, but my mother he could very well do it again.
Phoenix's best pies! (and best prices!) – Hands down the best pizza in the Arcadia/Biltmore area (and much further). No conveyor belt pizzas here. Only fresh stuff made daily and cooked to order in a brick oven. Sandwiches and pastas are outstanding too. All boars head meats on the subs. I eat here practically everyday for lunch on my route. If you are from the east coast and want a taste of home, this is the place to be. The owner Frank is from Jersey and you couldn't meet a nicer guy. It gets pretty busy for lunch and dinner almost every day but the staff is fast and friendly. Two huge slices and a bottomless soda for only $3.50! What a deal!
Craving always!!! – I walked upon this place by mistake after working out at Bally's(next door). Without finding out who the owner was, I ordered a slice and was stricken that this was a taste from home(New Jersey). I then talked with the owner(Frankie) and found out he was from my hometown. I have been a customer since. The sandwiches are a taste from home, and the pizza? The same. The value?? Try buying a two slices and a drink from any place else and see what it would cost. This daily special is $3.50 O-N-L-Y!!!!! I would recommend to many who are from the east coast, that if they have been disappointed in the past about their pizza, please go to Moma Mia. It is a slice pizza from home.........
What I do not like??? I wish they would expand to the far east valley! Traveling 45 minutes to satisfy my pizza craving is a long commute...
Ralph McNeal,
Newark, NJ
(Now living in Queen Creek)
True NY Style in AZ... – ...well, Jersey actually. If you know what a Taylor Ham is, this is your place. Everything that I've had from Mama Mia is outstanding. Not to overshadow the pizza (definite top 5 in the valley) but the wraps at this place are on the money. Try any one with chicked (#8 is my favorite) and you'll agree, it's the best value in town. Nice work Frankie!

AUSTIN, TX - In a bold move, propped up with the promise of Lonestar Beer, queso and whiskey, Council Member Martinez has united the clans of the Austin Facial Hair Club (AFHC) and will answer the Mayor's Fun Fun Fun Fest Aqua Olympics tug-o-war challenge. The Aqua Olympics will take place August 19 at Fiesta Gardens, with registration and opening ceremonies beginning at 4 p.m. and the games taking place from 5 p.m. - 8 p.m. "Much like ebony and ivory, my bald head and lack of facial hair will unite forces with the follicly-gifted in sweet tug-o-war harmony," said Council Member Martinez. "I am assured that on their expedition to Trondheim, Norway, last year, the mead flowed and they were handed down untold secrets from the ghost of Viking King Olaf Tryggvason. We fear no one on roller skates!" The Second Annual Fun Fun Fun Fest Aqua Olympics will not only feature a tug-o-war for the ages, attendees will also find food, music, paddle board jousting, synchronized swimming and, best of all, a taco cannon. "We have always admired Council Member Martinez's inner beard from afar. He fights for many of the same things we do -- independence, freedom, and the right to dance in public. It is for these reasons, and more, that we proudly join the Martinez team in the spirit of unity. Together, we should handily destroy the Mayor's roller derby lady squad, returning honor to the North," said Bryan Nelson, Grand Chancellor, AFHC. Founded in 2007 with the goal of representing Austin, Texas, and the country in the 2009 World Beard and Moustache Competition, AFHC is dedicated to promoting positive facial hair awareness and having a good time. They are committed to raising awareness and funds to send hairy Texans across the land in search of fame and glory for Texas. The AFHC is open to all men and women; hirsute, in pursuit, or just generally enthused by facial hair. Since their founding, the AFHC has fielded teams for the 2010 BTUSA National Competition and the 2011 World Beard and Moustache Championships in Trondheim, Norway.
